Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) claimed she was “physically accosted” earlier this week, but witnesses have disputed Mace’s allegation, the Charleston Post & Courier reports.
They claim the only contact they saw between Mace and the person ultimately arrested by Capitol police was a handshake after a reception.
Authorities have not released full details about the incident, including whether security cameras captured the exchange on tape.
